Precompiling is useful for writing Sakefile in various compile-to-JS
languages.
Precompiling is performed by JavaScript function from region embedded
in Sakefile and bounded by required marker lines. Marker line format
is inspilred by Vim modeline (but it's different).
Function region (along with marker lines) is suited to be located in
comments of host language:
* marker lines are independent of its prefixes,
* prefix of start marker line is stripped from every following
function source line.
Function must take one argument (string with Sakefile source) and
return string with compiled source.
This commit contains further restrictions to general idea:
* only files without extension are searched for function region,
* start marker must be located in first 5 lines of Sakefile,
* function length is limited to 100 lines.
* format of marker lines:
- start marker line: <prefix><white>sakefile:<white*>{
- end marker line: <prefix><white>sakefile:<white*>}
where <prefix> -- any characters
<white> -- one space or tab character
<white*> -- zero or more spaces or tab characters
